So is it time for Trump to drop and Cruz to step in??
« on: October 13, 2016, 05:30:34 AM »
With all the scandals we have no way to win. Is it time for Trump to drop out?

I remember back in the day when we took our trash out now most republicans are acting like democrats.

Voting has already begun in some states that allow early voting, so that appears impossible.  Aside from the question of why the party establishment would pick Cruz even if they could.

Who is this "we" that you speak of?  The only scandal ridden campaign is Hillary's - were you referring to her?

And I seem to remember being told to hold my nose and vote for McCain and Romney because, hey, they are the nominee.

Hillary's campaign is in panic because of all the wikileaks releases....I am guessing the DNC and the Hillary campaign is behind all these accusations against Trump. Remember the reports of them offering large sums of money for any dirt that could be found against Trump. I think these latest ones are all fabrications.

If more scandals come out on Trump which I am sure they will I don't see how we will win. Especially since we don't really have a conservative running. As far as holding my nose...well McCain and Romney are not even in the same ballpark as Trump.  They may have stunk but Trump is a cesspit.

There hasn't been a "conservative" running for President since 1980, and I doubt any of the purist, "true conservatives" today would vote for an orange-tanned former governor of a very liberal state.

The fact that Trump is NOT a career politician and is a successful business man are big pluses. And he wants to fight the political elites for all of us. He wants to protect our country form terrorist, illegals and hopefully will appoint Supreme Court Judges that will stand up for our constitution and not try to tear it up or destroy it.

But That is just my opinion.

I remember back in the day when we took our trash out now most republicans are acting like democrats.

As someone is  not a Trump fan (I also wanted Cruz), let me fill you in on something.

If Trump does not win this election, then the Republican establishment will have sent a message that if you're not part of their approved list, then you don't get to win. In fact, you don't even get the backing of the party. They've made it clear they hate conservatives (Not that Trump is one, but at least he gets in the D's faces and tells them to go off themselves with a dull knife, which is what the base has been begging its reps to do for years now). They like establishment Democrats over non-establishment Republicans. And for some reason, they actually believe in 2020 they can pull out an establishment candidate and everyone will fall in line, and they're in for a very rude awakening. The party, as far as holding the top job, is DOA.

Personally, I think they'd be very happy being the minor of two big political parties.

I think you're right. We need a party that stands by the people, for the people and for our constitution.

I am sicken by what the RNC had done and the way they have acted this year.

I will never be a democrat but the republican party has now lost me.

The Dems might be in for a rude awakening, too. The Wikileaks stuff and how the DNC played dirty pool against the bern is not setting well with many of them.

Now there's a chance they'll fall back in line like good little sheep. But I bet there's a sizable amount of them that won't.

I also think this.  There's a decently good chance that they will stay home on November 8th, and all of a sudden, the only ones who turn out are Trump voters.  Why do you think that they posted warnings of this this past week?  (It wasn't reported much, but I caught at least one video on YouTube pointing to this very possibility.)

If that happens, the current White House has a fit and declares 'stolen election,' produces allegations of Russian involvement, and threaten 'unspecified action.'

Same here. 

Anyone who claims this gaggle of open border, play-fight, establishment ****tards carry the standard of the "Party of Reagan" is either not paying attention or is a complete idiot.

The GOP, as I remember it, is long gone, and I won't miss this iteration when it finally dies.

I don't see it. It won't matter, 90% of the press is covering for her. They are, however, spending very valuable exposure capitol to do it.
I'm waiting to see what sort of 2 bit operations they fall to after this election is over and the public is given time to absorb what they have done... openly and without apology.
Most of the general public are too damned stupid to process more than one bit of information at a time, and they can't even remember those in between episodes of the kardashians. Maybe we deserve it at this point.
